drank Ruby Amaretto by Yawn
2038 tasting notes

ADVENT DAY 20, tea 1/3

Slowly catching up.
Also I have noticed that the ingredients list has been worryingly shrunk. Compare this: Rooibos, Cornflower, Calendula, Safflower petals, Natural flavours (that’s current version); and Rooibos, Cranberry, Orange, Almond pieces, Cardamom, Calendula, Red cornflower petals, anise, clove pieces, Natural flavours containing Nut oil (Almond and Hazelnut). (a version when they have been named Tea Revv)

As of this tea… from Yawn. It’s actually tasty rooibos, with bitter almond notes, but tasting a bit thin. That doesn’t surprise me as it doesn’t contain any ingredients but flavouring that could be close to amaretto ingredients. And if I am not wrong, amaretto should be also a bit bitter… as it is a liquor. This one rather leans into marzipan. Not a bad thing… but I have expected maybe something better.

And that ingredients list thing… maybe that’s why I found their chocolate cake the best so far. Because it contains real cocoa ingredients… while many contain natural aromas and not much else to contribute to flavours.

I am drinking almost everything. Tea bag collector who moved to wonderful world of loose leaf.

Trying to rate differently tea bags and loose leaf as tea bags have usually worse quality.

Photographer now and then. Postcrossing and geocaching member. Very curious person. Logistics student (should finish in June 2021).

Buried in tea right now. Is in my cupboard (trying to be updated) which sparkled your interest? Write me, I would gladly share with you. But I don’t want anything in return now :)
